16th International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods

调查员将于2005年1月在纽约市主持第十六届领域分解方法国际会议。到目前为止，在大规模并行分布式分层存储计算机上进行大规模模拟时，区域分解是最常见的范例。然而，许多域分解的用户并没有使用已知的最复杂和最有效的方法。这一点尤其正确，因为大型科学模拟社区的规模在过去几年里随着科学社区内硬件的可用而迅速增长，而不是传统上与计算数学或计算机科学社区的紧密联系。本系列中的第十六次会议将对大型模拟社区产生很大影响。会议的最终目标是通过鼓励整个国际计算科学和工程社区的跨学科技术交流，并利用会议地点吸引许多新的美国科学家来促进区域分解方法的进步。

The investigator will host the Sixteenth International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods in New York City in January 2005. Domain decomposition, in some form, is by far the most common paradigm for large-scale simulation on massively parallel distributed, hierarchical memory computers. However, many users of domain decomposition do not avail themselves of the most sophisticated and efficient methods known. This is especially true as the size of the large-scale scientific simulation community has grown rapidly with the availability of hardware in the past few years inside of scientific communities without traditionally strong ties to the computational mathematics or computer science communities. The sixteenth conference in this series will have a high impact for the large-scale simulation community. The ultimate goal of the conference is to promote advances in domain decomposition methods by encouraging interdisciplinary technical interchange throughout the international computational science & engineering community and by taking advantage of conference siting to attract to this important area many new U.S. scientists.
